A Female Prophet.

After Syra leaves, Li Jing taps her kids' shoulders and tells them.

"Forget him. There are some people I want you to meet. "

The triplets upwardly look up at their mother, then simply nod at her as a reply to her statement.

Although they are a bit anxious about their mother's immediate response of rejecting them from participating in the tournament, they still respond to their mother's will.

As they move on towards where Li Jing's friends are, Lucifer and Li Jing hold each other's hands.

They quickly forgot about the tension and Syra's existence, as they approached with a blissful atmosphere and genteel smiles on their faces.

Upon arriving, both Amaterasu and Xiwangmu immediately grab Li Qing Long and Li Baihu, while Li Xuan Hu has been accompanied by Jesus, Buddha, Brahma, and the Jade Emperor.

Meanwhile, Satan and the rest take the initiative to walk forward towards where Lucifer and Li Jing's family are.

"Everyone… These are my family; and Li Xuan Hu, Li Baihu, and Li Qing Long, these are your mom and dad's friends." Lucifer was calm and collected as he introduced Li Jing and her family to everyone.

Li Jing immediately followed up with Lucifer's introduction.

"Please allow me to introduce you all to my mother." Li Jing smiled brightly as she introduced her mom to everyone.

Li Na smiled at them, then bowed down and spoke softly.

"It's pleasure to meet you all."

Then Jesus and his friends replied respectfully towards Li Na, while Satan and his comrades just nodded as they responded.

"It's to meet you too, Madam."

Then Li Jing continue.

"This is my eldest son, Li Xuan Hu. Son, introduce yourself. "

Li Xuan Hu slightly bows down as he speaks politely towards everyone.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all, our mom and dad's friends."

As Li Xuan Hu finished introducing himself, Li Jing immediately followed up and introduced his son, Li Baihu.

"That Kid Xiwangmu is holding... His name is Li Baihu, while the one Amaterasu's hugging is named Li Qing Long. The three of them are triplets…"

"It's a pleasure to meet you all…" Embarrassed and shy, Li Baihu and Li Qing Long's faces have turned red.

Immediately after the kids introduce themselves, the Jade Emperor speaks.

"Naming them based on Si Xiang constellations isn't a little bit excessive?"

"Really?" Li Jing mischievously giggled at the Jade Emperor.

Then Xiwangmu joins in their conversation.

"Well, from what I've seen, I think this is normal. Jade... Even though Jiang was born and raised in China in his 10th of a million rebirth, even though his parents were both American and Japanese, Jiang is still considered Chinese. "

"You're right, I am starting to forget who he was. I am sorry…"

Li Xuan Hu, who listened and heard everything, became curious and wondered.

Who is Jiang? What is American and Japanese? Which country is China?

Thus, he asks her mother.

"Mom,"

"Yes, dear?"

"This Jiang.. Are they referring to you? or someone else?"

"!" Immediately, as her son asked, Li Jing got panicky and wary!

She looks at Lucifer in fear, then at Jesus and the others, hoping they'll help her, but... even they were perplexed by the situation and unable to comprehend the current situation.

Li Jing hates liars more than anything else. So, in order to answer her kids without leaving them more curiosity about who she was, she has to be wise.

"Yes, Li Xuan Hu… 'Jiang' was your Mom's name when they talked to me."

As clever as she was, her son is a quite innocent fox as well.

"Mother... Why do you say 'your mom's name'? Isn't 'Mom's name' enough? Why did you have to add 'Your'? It sounds like you're telling us that you're not our mom at all!"

"!"

Li Jing got panicked once again and anxious as she crouched down and put all her attention on her child.

However, as she crouched down, she collected herself and calmed herself down.

Composed and calm, Li Jing speaks truthfully.

"Li Xuan Hu… I am your mom, one and only... The moment I gave birth to you three, that's the start of me being a mother. Jiang was the name I had before I met your biological father... I hope you understand that the life I had before meeting your 'father' now was entirely different from what I had with your biological father. But don't worry, I'm your mother...and that won't change since I still have a job to take care of all of you three. Every morning for breakfast, changing the mats every time Li Baihu pees, washing your clothes when you all play, and when one of you gets sick, I nurse you all equally. "

Then Li Jing hugged Li Xuan Hu...

"If these memories I had with you all when you were still babies, even now, aren't enough to be called your mother, then I don't know what it is. I am your mother, Xuan Hu. "

"…" A moment of silence before Li Xuan Hu speaks softly. "I am sorry, mother… I don't mean to doubt you or do harm, but I just don't want you to use words that sound inappropriate for you, as our mother. "

"I understand… I forgive you, so please forgive me as well. "

As Li Jing leans back, she smiles at her kid, Li Xuan Hu, then kisses him on his left cheek.

Then she tapped his head and stood up.

"Now, Li Xuan Hu, Mom's going to speak. So please don't interfere for a moment, ok?"

With a blissful smile on her face, her son, Li Xuan Hu, simply nodded as an answer.

Then Li Jing looked back at her friends, composed and collected.

"So… Where were we?"

All of them were silent before Lucifer took the initiative to speak.

"You know what, Li Jing... All of us should enjoy the festival instead of just us and our family."

"That's a great idea!"

Jesus, on the other hand, Look at Li Xuan Hu.

And then...

"Jiang..."

"Hmm…?" Li Jing took a quick glance at Jesus as she heard his voice.

"This kid… Why does he have an Archangel self-healing spell?"

"!"

As Jesus spoke seriously, Buddha and the others cast deep glances at Li Xuan Hu.

Thus continues Jesus.

"…This isn't supposed to be in the story..."

Then Jesus took a quick glance at Lucifer and calmly asked him.

"Luci, Is this what you're doing? Do you have any idea what you have done?"

"…Yeah, I know. Why do you think I should grant him that?" Mischievously, Lucifer replies with a smile on his face.

"…"

Jesus didn't respond nor say anything about Lucifer's playful tone in his voice, but instead he looked at Li Xuan Hu, concerned and worried.

Lucifer saw that reaction and looked down upon Jesus and spoke seriously.

"Jesus... I do this because I know heaven more than you. I know that those pitiful soldiers won't stay, stand, and listen to Michael's command. Those pitiful flies are worse than us... and you know that. I am the embodiment of pride, so 'you' creature's father toy says; I know better than anyone else. "

Jesus sighed and spoke respectfully.

"Alright, I understand! Let's just hope Raphael is OK with this. He's supposed to be the guardian of these boys, but in this case, more like Raphael, he is not needed. "

"…" Lucifer became silent before he spoke softly and looked at Jesus, bewildered.

"I understand now… It's Raphael."

Then Lucifer took a quick glance at Li Xuan Hu.

With the sudden silence of Lucifer, everyone became disturbed and wary.

And then all of a sudden...

Li Jing, on the other hand, looks at Lucifer with a bewildered and troubled face.

"Lu-"

She tried to speak and say something in the midst of it, but...

Lucifer snaps his fingers.

From that moment, everyone and everything, including Li Jing, stopped moving.

While Jesus and his company and Satan and his comrades were present, they immediately flinched and were surprised by the sudden power that Lucifer had used.

Lucifer walks towards the frozen Li Xuan Hu state.

Looking down at the kid, Lucifer leans forward a little bit, and then...

Without hesitation, Lucifer plunged his right hand into Li Xuan Hu's gut.

Jesus and his company were surprised by the sudden action that Lucifer took against the Kid.

While Satan and his comrades felt nothing.

As he plunged his right hand into Li Xuan Hu's gut, Lucifer immediately took his hand out.

With his right hands covered with divine essence, such a divinity of holy light shines brightly.

Lucifer speaks: "Jesus..."

"!?" Jesus flinched for a moment as he heard Lucifer's soft and yet menacing voice.

"Raphael only appears if a chosen prophet is in danger, or if the chosen prophet's descendants or offspring are in dire need of help. So tell me... before, I changed my mind. Jiang is one of the female prophets, is she not?!"

As Lucifer leant back and stood firmly, after he loosed his right hand from Li Xuan Hu's guts, he took a moment to look at his hand that was filled with Holy Divinity, and then he spoke with a smooth and soft voice. His tone suddenly changes as he turns and glares down upon Jesus.

His presence of dominance as ruler of hell made Jesus shiver, with blue blazing flames in his eyes and emitting power and terror.

Although Satan and the rest thought this was just normal, Jesus and the rest thought something else.

For Jesus and his friends, this was the first time they saw and felt the anger of Lucifer with their own two eyes.

Jesus gulped and then spoke softly.

"She is, Lucifer..."

"!" Hearing such a statement, Lucifer jolted for a moment as he was surprised and then...

Lucifer looked down at the ground, holding his face with his left hand, then slowly started to laugh.

"hehe... hehehe... hehehe..."

As he laughs, he lifts his head up and looks up at the sky, and just like a madman, he laughs even more.

"Muwahahahahahaha! Father! I know you're watching!!! Hear this! Starting today! I shall accept this challenge! I understand now! I understand everything now!"

Then Lucifer looked down at his right hand that was holding the holy divinity that he had taken out of Li Xuan Hu and destroyed it by gripping it hard!

Like a crystal ball, it shattered into pieces and faded into nothingness.

"You're right, Jesus... I shouldn't put these kids in danger. I was wrong..."

Lucifer looked at Jesus with care and delight on his face.

Smiling earnestly at them, Jesus and his companions became befuddled and spaced-out for a moment until... Lucifer spoke once more.

"Jesus... Should I call Raphael or are you guys going to heal this boy for me?"

Before stating their desire, Jesus and his companions exchange glances.

Then Jesus speaks.

"Call Raphael... We can't interfere though."

"Ok, then..."

Then Lucifer put his hands together and closed his eyes, then prayed.

At that moment, a black man with four green-wings, curly long brown-haired with a long golden staff, wearing long white robes with baggy sleeves, appeared behind Lucifer.

"Lucifer... How nice to see you again. "

"You too, Raphael..." Lucifer responds as he turns around.

"I am sure you already grasp the situation… but I advise you not to say anything."

"Raphael... Tell them that I won't interfere in their destiny, but I'd like to hear a promise from you."

"I know... I promise; none of them will be tossed into the dark, freezing void... " As Raphael heard the serious voice of Lucifer and skeptical looks, Raphael earnestly smiled and spoke softly.

"Thanks…"

"Now, then... where's our little cute and lovable kid."

Raphael turned away with a blissful smile on his face and looked at Li Xuan Hu.

"Oh... This one-hmm...? What is this?"

As Raphael goes towards Li Xuan Hu and leans forward on to him, Raphael notices something in Li Xuan Hu's eyes.

"What? Is there something wrong?" Lucifer casually asked.

"This is quite interesting... This kid is conscious the whole time. He's listening to us. "

"!"

Lucifer flinched, then took a closer look at Li Xuan Hu.

Although Li Xuan Hu's outside body looks the same as others who are in a frozen state, Lucifer and Raphael notice something peculiar.

"This kid overcomes the suspended animation... Although he can't move or see us, I am sure he can hear us. " Raphael smiled as he found it amusing what he had witnessed upon looking at Li Xuan Hu in suspended animation.

Lucifer, on the other hand, leans back and then looks down on Li Xuan Hu and speaks.

"Xuan Hu… There's something I'd like to say to you. There's a man here, your guardian and, as well, your savior as for today. From now on, he will help you when your wellbeing is in danger. I hope you understand that; this is for your own good. "

Then Lucifer looked at Raphael and then nodded.

At that moment, Raphael squatted down and started talking in front of Li Xuan Hu.

"Kid... This is going to sting a little bit for you, so try to stay with us, ok?"

From that moment, just like Lucifer did to Li Xuan Hu when he repaired his Mana core, Raphael plunged his right hand into Li Xuan Hu's guts.

"His soul is really shattered into pieces; this kid is quite a bit more careless than I thought."

"Soul? Wasn't it just the mana core that broke into pieces?"

Raphael looked at Lucifer with a puzzled face.

"Mana core, soul, or anything else you want to call them, they're all the same... If you use magic, you use spiritual power. If you use Ki, you use spiritual strength. If you use mana, you use your spiritual life force. If you do anything that has got to do with divinity, whether it's good or bad, as long as you haven't ascended into a celestial being, whether your demon, immortal or mortal, you will consume your soul regardless. That's the Law of Life."

"The term has kind of confused me a lot of times throughout eons. But whatever, just do what you have to do. "

Raphael became perplexed. He upwardly saw Lucifer's carefree reaction.

"You…"

Raphael is so fed-up that he simply ignores Lucifer and goes back to Li Xuan Hu to fix his soul.

Then, moments later, Raphael was finally done.

"Done fixing his soul completely… I also added Archangel self-healing and barrier wrapping to his soul."

"That's great… How about you try it on others too? It would be bad if something happened when me and Jiang were not around with them."

As Raphael pulled his hand out from inside of Li Xuan Hu, Lucifer spoke mischievously to him.

Raphael looked at him as if saying, "Really, bro?"

However, Raphael doesn't have any other choice but to comply since what Lucifer said is right.

Then Raphael pointed his finger on Li Baihu and Li Qing Long's stomachs and struck them with his power.

A green beam of light pierced through Li Baihu and Li Qing Long's bodies.

"What did you cast on them." Lucifer, who was curious about what kind of power he had lent on to Li Jing's kids, he asked.

"Just like that kid, their soul has barriers and self-healing."

"Then what do you need in exchange?"

Raphael smiles mischievously and then speaks softly.

"...Michael, Gabriel, and I all wish you the best, Brother. May wisdom bless you."

Raphael spreads his wings wide, accompanied by his sweet and captivating voice, and then...

"May the word of the Father let us meet again. Farewell, Brother!"

Thus, Raphael left them.

With Raphael leaving, Lucifer turns back and looks at Satan and his comrades.

Satan has a bit of a sore face along with Asmodeus, while others like Leviathan, Beelzebub, Belphegor, and Mammon don't seem to have a problem.

Glaring at him, Lucifer speaks casually to Satan and Asmodeus.

"What?"

"Lucifer… I'll ignore the fact that you called Raphael, but what I wanted to know was, Why do you have to do it."

Satan was furious and enraged as he asked Lucifer.

After Satan speaks, Asmodeus follows.

"Lu... I never doubted your decision, but this one had me annoyed. Why do you have to call him to such an extent just to help your kids when you can do it better."

Lucifer looked them in the eyes and sighed heavily.

"Haizzzz~" With a sigh, he scratched his head along with it.

"... Alright, alright, I'll tell you guys! Samael is moving again. That brat is on the loose."

"!"

Everyone, including Jesus, jolted out as they heard the name.

"...I guess you know why I do that, right?"

Then Jesus speaks in the midst of the confusion.

"How did you manage to grasp the main problem?!"

Lucifer took a glance at Jesus and then smiled sadistically.

"Jesus... I am the perfect creation of my father. No secrets can hide from me... "

After saying that to Jesus, Lucifer looks in front of him where Satan and Asmodeus left him speechless and bewildered.

"So... Any further questions?"

"No... I understand everything now." Although Satan was a bit bewildered, he tried to calm himself down.

Then Asmodeus speaks, wary and anxious.

"So... do we have to call everyone as well?"

"If it's needed, we have to, but for now, no. Just prepare for the worst case. "

"I understand…" Asmodeus replies in a calm yet annoyed manner.

"Anyhow, this matter ends for now. We'll worry about that later, when the time comes. Because today, I shall enjoy what being a father means!"

Then Lucifer snaps his fingers.

"?" Then, at that moment, everyone and everything finally moves once again without the memories of what has happened... except Li Xuan Hu.

Then, as what Li Jing wanted to say in the middle finally continued; as the freezing time vanished.

"Lu, wait!"

"Hmm?" Lucifer turns as he hears the wary voice of Li Jing.

"If what Jesus said is Raphael's is these kids' guardian, then let's accept the offer!"

With a troubled face and a wary voice, Lucifer faintly smiled at her, then spoke softly.

"My lovely wife, you don't have to worry about that."

"Eh?" hearing the genteel voice of Lucifer, Li Jing's expression immediately changed into a dumbfounded look.

"I already had a small talk with Raphael earlier."

"You what?! How come I never saw him?! Wait... the snaps earlier... Did you stop the time?"

Lucifer didn't answer, but instead he just simply smiled and walked towards her.

"That's not fair! I want to talk to him, too!" Li Jing tantrums a little as Lucifer approaches her.

As Lucifer stands in front of her, he gently lifts Li Jing's chin and leans forward on her face.

"You don't have to talk to him, as I, Lucifer, have already solved the problems for you."

Then a peck of a kiss on her left cheek from Lucifer's lips as he leans forward towards her.

"Now let's go. Let's enjoy ourselves. "

Then Lucifer leans back and delightedly smiles at her, making Li Jing feel uncomfortable and embarrassed.

Li Jing's beet red face and agitated reaction, Li Jing staggers her statement as she speaks.

"Y-y-you! W-w-what is t-t-that for!?"

Then Lucifer taps her head, seeing the flustered Li Jing.

"You're so cute… Now let's forget everything that is happening right now, and enjoy everything!"

Lucifer grabs Li Jing's right wrist and gently drags her with joy on his face.

"Ah! Wait!" Surprised and spaced-out for a moment, Li Jing was startled by Lucifer's sudden action.

While Li Jing and Lucifer left, Satan and his comrades simply followed them behind.

However, the triplets, their grandmother, Li Na, and Jesus and his friends have left, standing still and looking at them as both Lucifer and Li Jing left.

From that moment, Li Xuan Hu speaks...

"Grandma... Please lead the way to where the tournament is."

"Eh...?" Li Na responded in surprise, as she never expected to hear such a statement from her grandson.

"Let's go there instead, and let mom and dad enjoy their moments." With a soft voice and a firm attitude, Li Xuan Hu just looked at his mother as they walked away from them.

"o-oh ok..." Li Na, who was confused at the moment, just puzzledly responded to her grandson.

From that moment, Li Na walks forward in front of her grandchildren.

However, before she even left, Amaterasu spoke in the midst of it.

"Madam... Please allow us to accompany you."

"Eh? Of course, why not? Please join us. I really hope that you don't mind that my daughter and her new husband left without saying anything. "

Li Na was surprised by sudden talk from one of her daughter's friends, and so she slightly bows down to Amaterasu and the rest of her friends, sincerely asking for forgiveness.

As Buddha delightedly smiles, seeing how well-mannered Li Na is, he speaks softly to Li Na.

"We don't mind, Madam... In fact, we're truly grateful instead. We hope we're not bothering you. "

From that moment, the Jade Emperor also speaks placidly.

"Madam... Since we're all together, allow us to bless you with a small gift from our home... As thanks for letting us join in on this event. "

With that being said, the Jade Emperor shows his right hand with a golden ring on it and then...

A small light gleamed from the ring, then a peculiar item out of this new world appeared.

A camera with Polaroid film!

The Jade Emperor presents the camera to Li Na and offers it to her as a gift.

Li Na was stunned and perplexed at the time; what kind of item was that supposed to do?

Thus, she asks awkwardly.

"Umm... What is that for?"

"!" The Jade Emperor flinched as he forgot the most important thing to remember, and that was that this new world is far behind the modern technologies that they have on Earth.

For a moment, the Jade Emperor looks at his friends, then awkwardly looks back once again at Li Na and speaks formally.

"My deepest apologies, Madam… Here, allow me to demonstrate to you what it is for. "

The Jade Emperor held the camera for a moment, and then pointed at Li Baihu.

"Xiwangmu, can you hold him for a sec."

"Of course!" Xiwangmu enthusiastically agrees and squats down, holding Li Baihu with joy on her face.

Before Jade Emperor clicked the button on the camera, Xiwangmu put her face closely on Li Baihu's left cheek, then smiled with a V sign along with it.

"Now, smile..."

As the Jade Emperor said that, Li Baihu, who doesn't know what's going on, smiled awkwardly.

Then Jade clicked the button on the camera and captured the moment.

And as it was captured, just like any Poloroid camera does, it prints the moments it captured.

The Jade Emperor then showed them the photograph he had taken of them.

With the gentle approach of the Jade Emperor, he hands it over to Li Na.

This causes Li Na to gasp in surprise!

"My goodness! What magical item is this?! To create a portrait instantly is truly such a gift. "

Li Na gleamed with joy as she saw the picture.

On the other hand, her grandchildren, Li Xuan Hu, Li Qing Long, and Li Baihu, have immediately gotten curious, so they walk towards their grandmother and take a quick look at the piece of paper that she is holding on to.

"This is me!" Li Baihu is surprised to see himself on a piece of paper, as it were.

Meanwhile, Li Qing Long and Li Xuan Hu, on the other hand, immediately speak for themselves after seeing the picture.

"I pay respect to my Mom's friends... Please tell us the honorable Lord's name."

At the same time, in the firm sync voice of both Li Qing Long and Li Xuan Hu, they stood firm, cupped their hands and bowed down in front of the Jade Emperor.

As the Jade Emperor saw the politeness and courtesy towards him, he also cupped his hand and began to speak.

"My name is Yu Huang, also known as the Jade Emperor."

"It's a pleasure to meet Lord Yu Huang." Li Qing Long and Li Xuan Hu speak firm and politely.

Then, as Li Qing Long and Li Xuan Hu got their answers, the Jade Emperor spoke pleasantly.

"Madam... How is it our gift to you?"

"…" Li Na didn't respond, or more likely, she didn't pay attention or hear Jade Emperor's voice due to the fact that she had an instant camera.

At that moment, Li Xuan Hu looked at her grandmother and poked her side to snap out of it.

As Li Xuan Hu poked her grandmother at her side, he also simply whispered to her.

"Grandmother... grandmother!"

"!" Li Na gasps and then looks awkwardly at her grandchildren, who are looking at her, embarrassed and disturbed.

Then the Jade Emperor speaks once again.

"Madam... I am sorry, but if our gift for you doesn't satisfy you, we can change it into something else."

"Ah?! No!No!No! The magical item is perfect! I accept it! Please allow me to say thank you for bestowing such a gift."

She bows down to the Jade Emperor. Her face was worried and her voice embarrassed, as she expressed gratitude for the gift.

Everyone, except the kids, smiled a little, seeing how amusing Li Na is.

With such an awkward yet blissful atmosphere around them, Li Na speaks once again.

"Ah?! I almost forgot that the tournament!"

Then Li Na takes a quick glance at the Jade Emperor and his friends.

and speaks awkwardly.

"Umm... You guys can fly, can't you?"

From behind, Amaterasu speaks at length and speaks.

"Madam... Don't worry about us. We can fly. "

"Then please, can you take my grandkids with you?"

"No, problem!" Amaterasu states confidently.

"Kid, come here! You're with me!" Xiwangmu entices Li Baihu with her words.

While Li Qing Long has been called by Amaterasu, Li Xuan Hu, in silence, goes to Buddha.

which makes Buddha feel joy as Li Xuan Hu goes towards him on his own accord.

Li Na, who saw her grandchildren just quietly follow her request, has spoken formally.

"Now then, please try to keep up."

Then Li Na jumped off, and flew!

From that moment, Xiwangmu, Amaterasu, and Buddha immediately grabbed the kids and jumped off and flew off!

Jesus, the Jade Emperor, and Brahma, like them, jumped off and flew away.

Upon flying, everyone released their divine essence, then summoned and created each of their flight devices.

Xiwangmu, Amaterasu, and Buddha created a cloud around them to make flying easier for the children, while the rest have their own.

Jesus summoned his wooden staff and rode on it, while Brahma summoned his White Lotus and sat on it, while the Jade Emperor used a jade sword and rode on it.

Before setting off, Xiwangmu, Amaterasu, and Buddha let the kids sit down with them on the clouds they created.

Then, they flew off at such a high speed.

"!" Li Xuan Hu, Li Qing Long, and Li Baihu, who felt the sudden outburst of energy and air friction, stumbled back on their chests to the people who were sitting behind them.

Buddha smiled at Li Xuan Hu as he stumbled on him.

With such air blowing on him, Li Xuan Hu couldn't open his eyes.

"Hard to see? Here, have this. Put it on your eyes. "

Buddha summoned a glass in thin air and offered it to Li Xuan Hu.

Li Xuan Hu grabbed the eyeglasses and put them on... However, due to the fact that Li Xuan Hu had no idea how to put it on.

Thus, he wore it upside down.

From that moment, Buddha was dumbfounded, then giggled a little bit before he helped Li Xuan Hu.

"Here; let me help you."

He gently grabs the eyeglasses and puts them on Li Xuan Hu neatly and nicely.

"How is it?" Buddha smiled on him, as he found it amusing.

Li Xuan Hu, who is upwardly looking at him, has seen the genteel smile, and thus he responds softly.

"Thank you, Sir."

"It's Siddhartha Gautama... That's my name. But everyone knows me as Buddha. "

"I see... Then, please let me call you Buddha instead. "

"Hehe..." Buddha giggles for a moment, hearing such a straightforward reply and firm voice.

"You're quite direct. Just like your mother... However, your mother is Naïve yet honest. "

"…" Li Xuan became silent for a moment before he spoke softly.

"Sir Buddha… Can I ask something?"

"Sure... What is it?"

"You know Mom very well, right?"

"Yes... I know her very much."

"Then… Do you perhaps know our father as well?"

Buddha didn't fret out nor be surprised but calmly listened to Li Xuan Hu, then replied to him.

"I'll be honest; I don't know who your real father was. So, aside from knowing who and what kind of mother you had, I can't properly answer you."

"I see... You don't know."

Dejected and despondent, Li Xuan Hu sighed deeply.

At that moment, seeing Li Xuan Hu's reaction, Buddha speaks calmly and benevolently.

"Let me tell you something. It's alright to seek answers in endless questions, but you shouldn't forget the people who helped you rise from this reality. "

"Sir Buddha..." Li Xuan Hu immediately fell in awe as he heard Buddha's wisdom.

"The answers you seek will come eventually. Sometimes, knowing the answers unprepared will only lead to destruction and despair. Discard your curiosity, hold on to your feelings, and let the present truth come in. That's how people transcend reality. Your fate is already bright; don't waste it. "

As Li Xuan Hu heard the warm message that Buddha stated to him, he felt admiration and smiled earnestly.

"Thank you so much!" He spoke delightedly.

And thus, Li Xuan Hu and Buddha became closer.

Meanwhile, like Li Xuan Hu, both Li Qing Long and Li Baihu have also been having a good time in Amaterasu and Xiwangmu.

Jade Emperor, Jesus, and Brahma are all pleased to see the bliss harmony that surrounds the children.

Thus it goes on, until they've reached their destination.
